When a cat catches a mouse, it will generally not rush to eat it. Instead, it will keep teasing the mouse until its liver and gallbladder are broken and there is no sign of activity before it starts to speak.
Driven by her survival instinct, the woman ran forward desperately.
But no matter how she ran, the ghosts of the soldiers of Gongsun Zan's army behind her were still there, and they couldn't get rid of them no matter what.
"Oh, we'll catch you soon."
"Run, little girl, run!"
There is absolutely no way that a woman who is in a panic and has a child in her arms can outrun a group of well-trained policemen.
The soldier behind suddenly opened his bow and nocked an arrow with a smile. With a "pop" sound, an arrow instantly penetrated the woman's knee.
The woman's right foot gave out and she fell to the ground weakly.
"Running, oh, oh, why did you stop?"
The soldiers behind him slowly stepped forward. The leader suddenly stepped hard on the woman's wound and crushed it several times with the hard toe of his boot while laughing wildly.
Under the severe pain, the woman's body arched up like a cooked shrimp.
She tried her best to open her mouth, but no sound came out. She could only use her maternal instinct to hold her child in her arms with all her strength, trying to use her body to shield the child from all harm.
But everything is in vain.
Obviously, the woman regards the child in her arms as more important than her own life.
Since that's the case...
"Oh, what a beautiful little baby. Come on, let uncle give you a hug."
The leading soldier stepped on the woman's face, then reached out his hand, gently scratched the face of the baby in her arms with his fingers, and then suddenly grabbed the woman's hand, trying to snatch it away.
Have children.
However, no matter how hard the soldier exerted his strength, the woman's arms remained as motionless as if they were made of steel.
"Please, he is still a child! Show mercy! Please! Let him go!"
God knows how such a thin woman can burst out with the strength to compete with a well-trained strong man.
The woman's face turned red, veins popped out on her forehead, and her teeth were almost bitten to pieces, but she still squeezed out a plea from between her teeth.
But everything is in vain.
The soldier had lost his patience.
"Show mercy? Sir, I will show mercy today."
The soldier let go of his hand and pulled out the saber from his waist, his face full of ferocity.
"You two, please go to hell together as companions!"
The hand rises and the knife falls.
"when!"
There was a sound of gold and iron clashing.
A long-handled broadsword collided with the soldier's saber. The two weapons intersected, and the saber instantly broke into two pieces.
The long-handled broadsword continued to exert its momentum, slashing a green light and shadow diagonally upward.
The next second, the soldier's stunned head fell to the ground with a "thud".
——————
Wang Yiyuan, who was hiding in the alley, could have just been a spectator - the purpose of these soldiers was just to hunt, and when the prey was obtained, they would naturally leave on their own soon.
Still impulsive.
The biggest problem with this kind of VR game is that it is difficult for people to be a cold-blooded animal that puts profits first. Almost subconsciously, Wang Yiyuan waved the long knife in his hand.
"Who are you? Lord Gongsun Zan will not let you go!"
"Oh? If I stop now, will Gongsun Zan let me go?"
"Uh... no."
"Then you say chicken and look at the knife!"
Wang Yiyuan suddenly attacked, holding his long knife upside down and rushing towards several other soldiers.
At present, Gongsun Zan's army has broken through the city. If there is a slight delay, more enemies will be attracted.
It must be resolved quickly.
"Wow, wow, you are so brave!"
Gongsun Zan's men were all proud and powerful generals. Although Wang Yiyuan showed bravery and killed the leader of the army with just one sword, everyone was happy and undaunted. They raised their spears and greeted him with a loud shout.
But this time, they mentioned it on the iron plate.
[Yan Yue] transformed into a dragon, and the green sword light flashed past.
In an instant, several soldiers who were proud just now were chopped into two pieces including their weapons.
The system prompts: "You saved a civilian in Anping County who suffered a military disaster, and your chivalrous tendency has been improved."
Done.
It's just a bunch of minions, it doesn't take much effort.
Wang Yiyuan was seen holding a knife in one hand, half-kneeling in front of the woman, smiling and comforting her.
"Sister, it's okay."
The woman shook her head slightly and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Okay, it seems something is wrong.
This woman was just an ordinary NPC with no martial arts skills at all. She had just been hit by an arrow from the soldier, and then was pushed to the ground and kicked in the head. She was already seriously injured.
But at this time, there was a smile on the woman's face. She let go of her hand and handed the baby in her arms to Wang Yiyuan. Her eyes were filled with hope. She coughed up blood and spoke intermittently.
.
"I can't survive."
"Ahem, please, please take my child out of the city. His grandparents live in a small village outside Anping City, ahem."
"His name is Ping An, cough, Ping An..."
The voice became smaller and smaller, and finally it was like a whisper. It was obvious that he had exhausted his last strength.
But the woman's hand still firmly grasped Wang Yiyuan's arm.
——————
The settings planned by dogs are always full of malice.
Even though he knew that this was just a bunch of data, he knew that if he could pretend not to see the scene in front of him, he would have a greater chance of escaping from the battlefield.
Not only that, the child is still crying loudly, which may be heard by an enemy with sharp ears, which will undoubtedly bring many unpredictable risks to the retreat.
Rejection is the optimal solution.
But in the eyes full of hope and the child's loud cry, Wang Yiyuan moved his mouth several times, but was still unable to say anything.
Fuck, forget it, it’s just a game.
The worst he can do is die once.
"Okay, leave it to me."
Wang Yiyuan gritted his teeth.
If you have to find the optimal solution for everything, what's the point?
System prompt: "You triggered a random mission [Save a Life]."
【Save a life】
Mission type: Random mission
Send the baby in front of you to his grandparents' home to protect him from dying in the rebellion.
Mission objective: Escort the baby 0/1
Note: When carrying a baby, the baby's cry has a small chance of attracting nearby enemies to get closer to you. In addition, all your attributes will drop by 10%. When you are hit, there is a certain probability that the baby will die directly.
.
"Thank you, thank you..."
The woman's hand finally slowly loosened her grip, her voice became softer and softer, and finally, she slowly closed her eyes.
"Kid, say goodbye to your mother."
"I hope your mother's spirit in heaven will protect us and help us escape smoothly."
